@Sebastian-Roth

Thank you! I forgot about my firewall, once I shutdown my firewall, everything is fine.

This is quite hassle problem I met in my working environment.

Most of our Linux servers hardware will getting aged after some years in production environment.

Then a question is raising up. The living Linux (for example Centos production servers) maybe already updated to Centos Stream 8 or 9 from Centos 6/7, but the machine is about 8-10 years old.

We want to move the running Linux system (we can backup it as Linux Image that include system and all applications) to a much newer CPU (x86_64) architecture. We tried to use Clonezilla live to do it, and I never get it work well.

We found FOG project maybe have some idea about it.

If it is, please advise!

• Rocky Linux 9 clean installed on x86_64 arch machine
• installed lab-core from red-hat by [dnf --enablerepo=devel install redhat-lsb-core]
• get most recently version (1.5.10) fog-project from GitHub by [git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject.git] yesterday.
• Rocky Linux 9 config as:
  • Gateway (Route): 10.0.1.1
  • NIC config: static ip address: 10.0.1.120

• Here are the settings FOG will use:
  • Base Linux: Redhat
  • Detected Linux Distribution: Rocky Linux
  • Interface: enp1s0
  • Server IP Address: 10.0.1.120
  • Server Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

  • Installation Type: Normal Server
  • Internationalization: No
  • Image Storage Location: /images
  • Using FOG DHCP: Yes
  • DHCP router Address: 10.0.1.1
  • Send OS Name, OS Version, and FOG Version: Yes

When installation, everything went smoothly to end to complete

• Setup complete

  • You can now login to the FOG Management Portal using

  • the information listed below. The login information

  • is only if this is the first install.

  • This can be done by opening a web browser and going to:

  https://10.0.1.120/fog/management

  Default User Information
  Username: fog
  Password: password

  • Changed configurations:

    The FOG installer changed configuration files and created the
    following backup files from your original files:

    • /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf <=> /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf.1682897839
    • /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf <=> /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.1682897839
    • /etc/exports <=> /etc/exports.1682897839

Tried to access from above advised URL and successful

This a snapshot for netstat to show apache listen on IPV6, but access by using IPV4 is okay.!

It is very confused.

Reboot server and tried access https://10.0.1.120/fog/management, browser response:

Unable to connect

An error occurred during a connection to 10.0.1.120.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

tried to check the service status by

[root@rocky9fog ~]# systemctl -l | grep FOG
FOGImageReplicator.service loaded active running FOGImageReplicator
FOGImageSize.service loaded active running FOGImageSize
FOGMulticastManager.service loaded active running FOGMulticastManager
FOGPingHosts.service loaded active running FOGPingHosts
FOGScheduler.service loaded active running FOGScheduler
FOGSnapinHash.service loaded active running FOGSnapinHash
FOGSnapinReplicator.service loaded active running FOGSnapinReplicator

seems all FOG related service is activated an running well.

I am lost here. What’s and where is wrong?
